The idea of lacing a zipper into the tongue portion of a boot is outdated. We recommend you use the Original SWAT Installation Straps to install the Original S.W.A.T.® 8-Eyelet Zipper. The Installation Straps, unlike using a bootlace, keeps the zipper more rigid and secure. This allows the zipper to be more efficient when being used because the "lace play" that is associated with a laced in zipper is eliminated.
The 8-Eyelet Zipper is used traditionally in an 8-Eyelet Boot. However, it can be used with any of the Original SWAT 9-Eyelet Boots.
